What does your body really need every morning?

Protein.

Protein is critical for maintaining muscle mass and brain power. Proteins are part of every cell, tissue, and organ in our bodies. They are constantly being broken down, and thus need to be replaced via food. Protein also helps you to feel satisfied longer.
